KING THE MALONE MURDERER.
A Sensation at Huntington over Clue
The Wrong Man Arrested.

Quite a sensation was created in Hunt
ington Tuesday by officers and detectives
going there and saying that they had
traced George King, the Malone murderer,
to that place, and that King went there
by the name of 10 Bennett. Deputy
Sheriff Norton of that place on being in
formed of the matter with other officers
investigated the case and learned that Ben
nett who had recently come from over the
lake could not be found. It was also
stated that he was seUreted in the noun
talus, but it was afterward learned that
he had crossed over Brown hill into Monk
ton where he was arrested He gave hlm-
self up freely aud said that his hands were
clear. On being examined by the officers
it was found that he had no missing fing-
er and he was released He said that he
kuewKing and had worked with him in
the lumber woods over the lake. The mys-
terry thus still remains unsovlved, but II is
thought that there may something grow
ont of this search that will bring the right
man to Justice

BASE RAIL- AT MONTPELIER.
strong Team Formed-Sketch of the
Nine-Their First Game.

Montpelier has put into the field what
seems to be an excellent nine and the sea-
son promises to be a good o~e. The fol-
lowing comprise the nine, Mansill, Id,
Robbins, CT, l4arimer. IS, Walker, p,
Cunningham, 30, Jones, C. Foster, 2b,
McCorthey, RI, Cox, II. Several
others are in town and many changes
may yet be male. Mtusell is
Il good man, as is evident from
the fact that he has several standing
offers. He knows the first base, but is a
little conceited. Robbins is a good player.
Larimer won au envlable reputation on
his class nine at Dartmouth college and is
above the average short stop.
cunningham did good work at Dart
mouth, so he says, and the practice games
have shown that he has an idea of base
ball ana how it should be played. The
battery, Jones and Walker, will do the
work, if any is done. They are
well known and "show up" as if
they would sustain their reputation.
Foster comes well recommended. Nc
Carthy has shown no phenomenal work
thus far but is very popular. Cox plays
right field and il captain.
The nine accompanied by about 30 spec
tators went to Randolph Tuesday and
crossed bats with the nine there. The
score stood q to in favor of Montpelier.

still had the breath of life in them and
passing them over the line to be eXchang-

bare feet and bare head in his sleeveless
coat and trousers vacant below the knee,

passing away, said to a comrade by his
side, 81 may as we'll die one way as an

Sensitive Mr.. Cleveland.
Rutland IIerald.)

The presidents letter to the st. Louis
committee, printed in this issue, with
drawing his acceptance of the invitation
to visit that city while the grand army is
encamped there, on the ground that the
veterans do not wish to disturb harmony,
is about the weakest act of his admins
tration. To decline to &C is sensible, but
to write such a whining letter about it is
worse than puerile-it is babyish.
The impression that his letter creates is
that he wishes to make himself out the
innocent victim of very malicious pre-
judice, and so convince the country, and
especially the people of st. Louis, that
the veterans are heading off great circus
and standing in the way of national rec
onciliation. But he forgives them and
like the discarded lover, he remains q
friend. A new convert did an eXtraor-
binary act of kindness to an old enemy
and told his minister of it. "How came
| you to do 1t ?" asked the dominic, $50 as
to heap Goals of fire on his - old head,
was the answer. We do not wish to init
mate that Mr.. Cleveland has been con
verted but he has the forgiving spirit OF
| this convert, beyond doubt.
And he Is as egotistical as Andy John
son. He imagines that 1t is great thing
for president of the United States to q
to st. Louis Probably it would be quite
a journey for Mr.. Cleveland and nigh
give him considerable idea of the magn
tude of this country. But when he call
Missouri "A Southern State and attache
importance TO the Grand Army's goin!
there on that account, he don't know
what he is talking about. To be sure, tn
State has an eX-rebel for governor, an
two ex-rebels for United States senators
but, thanks to Fremont, Lyon, Hunte
and Blair, 1T never went out OF the unlo
and the geographers have never classed
as a Southern State. And a State whic
furnished to the Union army los, 113 so
diers will not seem like very strang
land to the veterans nor one that is
perishing need of becoming "reconciled.
